Scientific paper

An unusual occurrence was recorded by Pioneer Venus Orbiter (PVO) in the Venusian ionosheath on Nov. 10-11, 1981 (orbit 1071): densities of ions and electrons were observed that were an order of magnitude higher than any observed by PVO before then or since. This region of enhanced densities covered an extended region in the dayside ionosheath. An analysis of these observations is presented here.
